List all files in folder and subfolders

[Scriptor]

Hey guys!
Im trying to get a list of all files (doesn't really matter what extension) that exists in a folder and it's subfolders.
So far I've tried a few solutions without coming up with anything simple and reliable. I did try this;
https://community.adobe.com/t5/photosho ... -p/5162230

But it returns that "sFolders.getFiles(); is not a function.", and since it's friday afternoon I guess my brain is mush.

Anyhow - I just want a simple array containing all files (including their searchway) based on whatever input folder you select.
How would I achieve this?

After Adobe transited their forums from old platform, the parts of codes like for ex. [ i ] were lost.

I know it's really ugly, but at the time I just wanted something that did the job, and I'm not too concerned about how long time it takes to get all files.

Enjoy!
